Nintendo Entertainment System – The Ultimate Survivor

I’ll bet that anyone reading this story can share many fond memories of their original Nintendo console. For some, it may have been a member of the family. While we all can remember the old “pause the console until tomorrow morning because Ghouls N’ Ghosts is too freaking hard” technique, the Nintendo console at the focus of this article would have consumed twenty years’ worth of electricity. I wonder how much that would cost? I think I’ll have to consult my recent Duke Power bill for the rate conversion. Anyone know what the amperage was for the original NES?
